Salt Rheun1

The asonics Of those who suffer from severe
salt yheum are understandable. The cleansing,
healing, purifying influences OF Hoods Sarsa-
parilla are unequalled BY any other medicine.
IL take pleasure In recommending Hoods
sarsaparilla, for 1t has done wonders for me-
had salt rheum very severely, affecting me
over nearly my entire body. Only those who
have suffered from this disease in its worst
form can imagine the extent OF my afiiiction.

benefit until / took Hoods Sarsaparilla-
Then the disease began to subside, the
AgonIxing Itch and Pain
disappeared, and now am entirely free from
the disease. My blood seems to be thor
oughly purified, and my general health Is
greatly benefited. LYMAN ALLEN, Sexton

my son had salt rheum on his hands and

His Treacherous Memory.

It is not often that a prospective bride
groom forgets that he is to be married, but
such a case occurred in New Haven, Conn,
few days ago. Two hundred guests were
gathered in the Second Advent church OF
that city to witness the marriage of Mr..
Thomas Allen and Miss Ella Hill. The par
son was ready. but they failed TO appear at
the appointed time Finally a messenger
was sent to the home of the prospective
bride to inquire the reason of the delay.
He soon returned and informed the parson
and the guests that the marriage had been
indefinitely postponed.
The cause of the postponement was
strange. Mr.. Allen, it seems not only for
got that he was to be married. but he
claimed that he had never been engaged to
Miss Hill Shortly before the hour he was
expected to take Miss Hill to the church he
left his lodgings and went to the home of
his aunt. When found there by a reporter
he said that he had known Miss Hill just
two weeks He had heard her and her
mother talking of marriage, and had also
heard himself spoken of as the groom, but
he supposed the matter was joke. He de-
clared Miss Hills age to be 2S and his own
"a, and he expressed the belief that Miss
Hill had already been married. He had
never had the remotest idea Of marrying,
and appeared to be overwhelmed with sur
prise when informed that the parson and
the guests had waited for him at the church.
Miss Hills friends told different story.
They insisted that she and Mr. Allen had
been engaged long time, and that he had
fixed the time for the marriage. They
charged his failure to appear according to
appointment to his loss of memory.
Perhaps it was well that the marriage did
not take place. NJ. Aliens treacherous
memory might have caused many serious
misunderstanding He might, for instance,
have forgotten that he had a wife, and
might have unconsciously committed big
amy. If children had blessed the
union he might have forgotten
that they were his, thus causing
them to become a charge upon his wife's
relatives or the State. Indeed, there is no
telling to what LIS treacherous memory
might not have led; and, instead of weep
ing her pretty eyes out, as Miss Hill is re-
ported to have done, she should have con-
graduated herself upon her fortunate
escape from fate too horrible to be de-
scribed in detail

shortly after the so-called comic opera of

after many tribulations and it was then facing
the vicissitudes of the road. Tapioca called on
me at the office and he sat down and twrled his
hat around his hand in a thoughtful manner,
and he coughed deprecatingly and said:
''See here; want you to write an opera for
me- 1t must be bowling funny and must be
called Ellen"

emphasis, - 'Ellen-you remember her. Tenny-

Street Paving Suggestions.

The City Council having determined to
pave Congress street in November, would it
not be advisable to pave Bull and Barnard
streets between Congress and State streets
at the same time? The parts of the two
streets mentioned ought to be paved, and
that too, as soon as posSibleA The property
owners interested would doubtless bear their
share of the expense, and, as experience
proves that it takes u good deal of time to
get the Council to do, in the way of paving,
what is wanted done, it would be well to
begin the work of getting the consent of the
adjacent property owners at once. Perhaps
the property owners on Broughton street,
between Abercorn and East Broad, are
about ready to ask to have that part of that
street paved. If so, let them start a petition
at once Broughton street ought tahe pafed
throughout its entire length, and all obsta-
cles in the way of paving it can be SoYer4
come easily if the proper effort is made.
Whatever paving is done is this Eitg must
be done in a small way, because the city is
not able to go into the paving business on
done each year, however, it win not be long
before Savannah will have several miles of
streets paved with asphalt.
One of the greatest hindrances to the
city's growth is the sandy streets. Is there
not some cheap method of improving
the streets? AT the present slow rate of
putting down the asphalt pavement it will
be years before the principal streets in the
residence portion of the city are reclaimed
from their present deplorable condition.
1t is said that Vineland, n j., has
excellent dirt streets, although its site
is very sandy. Indeed, its streets We're
about impossible before they were i'm
proved. Clay and some other substance
were mixed with the sand, and the result
was good, hard roadways. The cost was
not great 1t was, in fact, very small in
comparison with the benefits obtained A
little inquiry might result in securing in
formation that would enable the Council to
greatly improve our streets. Excellent clay
can be obtained in any quantity in different
parts of the county. Why would not low
grade of rosin mixed with the sand make a
cheap and good roadway?
